How facial recognition works
Use facial recognition for biometric identity verification or to quickly recognize team members for clocking in

Collections: Tracking Time
Facial recognition can be used to verify a person’s identity (mobile & kiosk) or to quickly clock in through a shared time clock kiosk. For this to work, you will need to configure your time tracking policies and enable facial recognition.
Clocking in and out with facial recognition in personal mode
When enabled, team members can log time in Jibble using facial recognition on their own devices.
- When clocking in/out, the app will recognise team members automatically.
- A photo is captured after that and added to the timesheet for audits as well.
To get the best results, make sure that:
- There is enough lighting when someone is trying to take their photo. Facial recognition may have difficulties distinguishing your face when there isn’t enough light source.
- Your whole face is on the front camera screen, and the angle used is the same.
- You don’t wear a hat or cap when taking your photo.
Recognizing team members with facial recognition in Kiosk Mode
Similar to personal mode, when enabled, team members can log in to the Jibble app using a shared device provided by their manager/company. They are able to immediately clock in or out on the screen. What happens:
- The app will recognise team members’ face based on their face data.
- Once it recognises the member, they will be able to clock in or out.
- A photo is captured and the member can fill in their details to confirm their time entry to clock in or out.
Removing face data
There are two ways you can remove your face data:
On the web:

On mobile:
